Digital. Which means perfect, clean repeats. Slash uses this on on Welcome to the Jungle. Not for the Gilmour thing.

I've had my DD3 for over 20 years and have had nothing but fun with it. I understand that these aren't made in Japan anymore so this may account for some of the issues people seem to be facing. I do find it sucks a ton of juice and the decay though initially quite clean begins to sound more digital the closer it gets to the end of the signal's life. This may seem a bit expensive but considering the many years of service I've had it has been money well spent.

Bad switch2 of 5 customers found this review helpful

Had this dd-3 for a few months, the switch started getting "iffy". It almost never turns on (or off) with the first click. That makes it utterly unreliable if, say, you want to use delay on a short lead and need to quickly go back to yer verse riff or whatever. In that kind of situation where you don't have much time to switch it on, you stomp on it, it either doesn't light up, or turns off as soon as you take your foot off. I've tried various non-invasive ways of making this work, but I'm 99.99% certain its that flimsy lil plastic switch. Its only useable to me if the effect can be left on continuously for a whole song. My other issue is with the lack of true bypass on boss pedals. More than one of em on your pedalboard and the life gets squeezed out of your tone. Bottom line: theres so many more options that will give you true bypass and, hey, maybe even a sturdy metal switch that'll work consistantly.

I've had this unit for a really long time now and it's never failed. Had a great sound. Tones of features. A must for any guitarist.

Product ExperienceI've tried it

Closest StoreHalifax, Nova Scotia

I use delays mostly to create a stereo image for guitar (split between two amps). I find that, when using this pedal in a y-configuration, the resulting sound is buzzy. I end up using the pedal from the pre-amp out of my amp, and running the wet signal to the other amp. Only problem is, the output is only exclusively wet when there's something plugged into the direct-out (so, a mono plug).
A little annoying to deal with, and a little pricey, but it's not mine anyway, so whatever.

Very basic and it sounds great. Very good build quality. This is a commonly used industry standard pedal. Dont usually use Boss products but this one fits the bill.

THis is a fantastic sounding delay pedal. It's something that is simple and acts just like an analog delay, except it's not. The loop is good but as mentioned before, it is hard to match timing. The one feature I wish it had was reverse, which I know the DD-7 pedal has but the DD-7 does not sound as crisp. Try it out!

I've heard stories about this pedal having problems for some people, but I've had mine problem-free for a few years. You can get everything from a slight reverb to a full out wake of notes trailing. I do find that unlike most boss pedals, that this one is a little highly priced, but it is indeed a decent pedal.

Very clean, digital, sterile delay sound. If you want warm vintage ambience, get an analog delay like the EHX memory toy. The only feature I currently use on this pedal is the hold feature. It's useful for looping a very short sample, but it's hard to get the right timing. Overall, an ok pedal for a very high price. This is also the only boss pedal I've ever had problems with or heard of people having problems with, reliability-wise.
